VIOLIN GUITAR SOUND – A beautiful type of guitar sound, often called violin guitar sound, produced with combining long sustains and fast picking is found in bag of tricks of many famous guitar players. Truly, it is very effective, keeps the listeners attention and allows individual technical abilities and style of a player to show.
Another small but powerful unit from Marshall. Just like the Echohead delay unit, this pedal is capable of expanding your guitar sound beyond what you would expect from a single stomp-box as it offers six different types of modulation effects which makes it effectively a modulation multieffect. Four knobs add to simplicity, two outputs give [ Read More ]
Well, it is a classic. A sound of an old tube amp on the verge of breakup. It is a successor of a Boss OD 1, the first overdrive in a compact pedal that Boss ever released in 1977. Since SD1 was introduced it has been used on countless stages by countless guitar players due [ Read More ]
I must say that I was amazed what this little pedal can do. Features and especially the sound quality is way beyond what you would expect. It offers six different types of delay: HI-FI which is a digital delay great to use for accurate repeats, ANALOG which emulates analog delay units and adds warmth and [ Read More ]
ADRIAN BELEW ELEPHANT TALK – Adrian Belew is another guitar sound wizard that is always exploring new sonic grounds and new guitar sound effects. Whether in other projects (David Bowie, Talking Heads, King Crimson,..) or projects of his own, he always uses an embarrassing amount of gear and is always keen to try new devices.
Stevie Ray Vaughan Sound – It is a well known fact that the easiest way to acquire that thick, juicy, sought after sound of great Stevie Ray Vaughan (besides heavy finger work and a strong right hand technique) is by using an old Fender Stratocaster (1959 preferably) with vintage type pickups ( Fender Fat 50s or Tex Mex), Fender Vibroverb amp and a Tubescreamer pedal. However there are other ways of using your guitar sound effects and your gear to get similar sound.
MESSING WITH A GUITAR SOUND – This is an audio clip of me jamming with my band in our rehearsal place. It is kind of seventies rock jam. This is not here to showcase my playing, musical ideas or my band and our musical style (we play many styles not just this one). So don’t get judgmental on mistakes, quality of the recording etc. This clip is here just to show you one of the sounds I enjoy using and how I got it with my guitar sound effects.
PINK FLOYD SOUND – The phaser I use is BOSS PH 3 pedal. It is a little different than other phaser pedals. It is probably not the best phaser pedal out there if you are after that vintage sound. It cant compare to Mutron and it is very different than MXR Phase 90 (the one I belive Gilmour used on this song) or Electro-Harmonix Small Stone. But it is very versatile and provides variety of sounds which is the reason I like it.
